"How's the journey going?"
Xiao Zhi pretended that nothing had happened, and still asked Chu Yi as calmly as before, watching her sitting in front of him.
"With General Tao's protection along the way, everything will be fine."
Chu Yi lowered her eyes and nodded silently. She saw the original intention of the palace maid standing beside her, and it seemed that she would no longer have to be a palace maid any time soon!
"That's good. I asked him to escort you to protect you, so he has completed the task I assigned him and done a good job."
Xiao Zhi nodded with satisfaction. This could be regarded as a sign of Tao Yong's loyalty to him. If he wanted to become his person, he would have to make some practical actions.
Then the two suddenly fell into silence again. After not seeing each other for several months, the two of them became a lot stranger.
Chu Xinhou was beside him, feeling his heart beating very fast and his hands trembling slightly with excitement. All the results were today.
She lowered her head and looked at the ground, thinking about what to say in front of the princess later. No matter what, it was best to lower her posture first.
Chu Yi took the tea handed over by Xiao Zhi and looked at the water as if she saw her own reflection and saw the disappointment in her eyes.
The original intention is already standing here, and it is clear that it is what I want to bring to myself.
Xiao Zhi, Xiao Zhi, you are really ridiculous. When Chu Xin was around, she couldn't bear to be so kind to her, but now she has found an inexplicable substitute, but she dares to be so bold!
If it is known that Chu Xin is still alive in the future, what kind of existence will this original intention become?
"I have something to tell you."
After a long silence, Xiao Zhi finally spoke first. Chu Yi had been a couple for several years, but I'm sorry, but there was never that touch of love.
Without love, you can hurt with peace of mind.
"I wonder if Your Highness has anything to say, I am all ears."
Chu Yi raised her head and looked directly into Xiao Zhi's eyes. Finally, at this moment, what she had to experience was what she had to experience.
I am not the pampered and willful princess at a young age. Now I am still a princess, so I must learn to tolerate it.
"Chu Xin, come here."
Xiao Zhi turned to look at Chu Xin who was waiting beside him, and stretched out his hand to signal him to come over.
The moment she heard this name, Chu Yi was in a daze for a moment. Could Xiao Zhi tell who this name belonged to?
I also looked at the direction of my original intention, saw her walking over with her head lowered and a shy face, and saw her putting her hand on Xiao Zhi's.
Then the two of them sat together, as if they were an intimate couple, and he seemed to be just an outsider.
"Her name is Chu Xin, and she is the maid who serves me in the palace. I saw that she was well-behaved and sensible, so I wanted to stay by my side and call her my wife. What do you think?"
As Chu Xin said this, she hugged Chu Xin into her arms, and there seemed to be a faint smile on the corner of her mouth. In fact, this was not a big deal, it was simply a trivial matter not worth mentioning.
There are already several concubines and concubines in the palace, so what’s the big deal if there’s one more?
Over the past few years, Chu Yi should have seen this truth earlier and stop having indifferent illusions about himself.
"Original intention? Which original intention?"
Chu Yi's eyes always stayed on Chu Xin's face. In fact, the face was just similar, but the expression and temperament were completely different.
Chu Xin's eyes were blinking restlessly. Even when he disliked Chu Xin the most, he never felt so disgusted.
"Of course it's the one in my arms. The princess is a generous person, so she shouldn't mind this, right?"
Xiao Zhi still stabbed Chu Yi in the heart without hesitation. In his opinion, these were just normal things.
In the past, I was willing to tolerate Chu Yi's indulgence and willfulness, but that was just a temporary forbearance, but it is indeed different now. He will soon have the power, and there is nothing to tolerate.
I was very shy at first and didn't dare to look up at Chu Yi. Even though I had His Majesty's favor and protection, I still had to get past her!
"Since you like this young girl so much, there must be something special about her? Raise your head and let me see clearly what kind of beautiful appearance makes His Highness so fond of her."
Chu Yi suddenly smiled, pretending to be confused, but wanted to see if this substitute was qualified and whether he could learn half of Chu Xin's temperament?
Chu Xin raised her head, not daring to look into Chu Yi's eyes. She had long heard that Princess Xiang was jealous and treated her concubines and concubines very harshly. Now she couldn't help but feel a little scared.
Xiao Zhi seemed to sense the fear in his heart, so he hugged her tighter.
"She looks just average. I guess it's not this appearance that Your Highness likes, right?"
Chu Yi retracted her gaze and raised her brows, looking at Xiao Zhi with a smile, believing that both of them knew what they were saying now.
"Everything is as long as I like it. Seeing that the princess is acting like this is considered acquiescence. Tomorrow, she will be my concubine. She will still stay in the palace to serve her and there is no need to go back to the palace."
Xiao Zhi's words were a light decision, and he held Chu Xin in his arms in front of Chu Yi, as if she, the legitimate wife, had become an outsider.
"Since His Highness has decided, that's fine. Then you can stay in the palace and take good care of His Highness on my behalf."
Chu Yi smiled slightly, watching Chu Xin explain softly, she was completely different from her previous self.
"yes."
Chu Xin nodded quickly and felt that his whole body relaxed. He didn't expect that this day would pass so easily.
I didn't expect that the current princess would be so easy to talk to. She seemed completely different from the jealous princess in the past.
But no matter what, my status is finally settled, and I will finally be half a master from now on!
Chu Yi didn't know how she got out. Maybe she thought the scene of Xiao Zhi holding Chu Xin in his arms was too dazzling. Maybe she felt like she was too much like an outsider, so she just left.
Anyway, it’s safe to come back this time, so there’s nothing more to say.
As for the dangers he encountered on the road, it doesn't matter. Does it mean that Xiao Zhi will care about it and feel distressed?
When I went out, I didn't expect to see Tao Yong. He seemed to have been waiting outside the door for a long time.
"Princess," Tao Yong bowed his hands to Chu Yi,
"If you want to report to His Highness, just go in. You don't need to say too many words. Just say that everything was safe and sound along the way."
Chu Yi left a word lightly, no matter how Tao Yong took Yuexiang and left, she just felt very tired and needed to go back and have a good sleep.
After you wake up, everything will be fine, right?
As for that original intention, it seems that Xiao Zhi really likes it and has made up his mind to stay with him, so let's stay with him!
Tao Yong looked at Chu Yi's leaving figure and felt that she seemed to have lost a lot of weight. Considering her condition, her relationship with His Highness must still be very bad, right?
Otherwise, why wouldn't he be smiling at all? I couldn't help but feel a trace of distress in his eyes.
"Your Highness, it turns out that the princess has such a good temper. Fortunately, I was so worried that I couldn't sleep all night long. I didn't expect that today would pass so easily!"
Chu Xin leaned in Xiao Zhi's arms with a smile on her face. This moment will be her happiest time, right?
The difficulty that I thought I couldn't overcome was actually passed so easily. I didn't expect that the princess didn't seem to be angry at all, but she accepted it so easily.
The princess has become so generous, and her life should be much easier in the future.
"It is her responsibility to do these things. As a princess, if she is always jealous and treats her concubine harshly, how can she deserve to be a princess?"
Xiao Zhi didn't care at all, he just felt that Chu Yi should bear this.
No one can always be so arrogant. In the end, he will be defeated by the reality of life and fall from the clouds into the mud.
I remember that when I was very young, I was a hostage in Chu State. The Chu Yi I met at that time was a truly pampered princess. She was so aloof and never looked down upon anyone.
But now, haven't we all learned to bow our heads as usual? This is the real real life.
"That's what His Highness said."
Chu Xin happily retracted into Xiao Zhi's arms. Judging from this posture, no matter what happens, His Highness will definitely be on his side!
Then there is no need to be so afraid of the princess.
After Chu Yi returned, she had all the ladies called over. She sat there looking dazed.
Xiao Zhi held his first heart in his arms so tenderly, and was so afraid that she would be a little wronged. Although he knew the reason for this love, he still felt a little uncomfortable.
Xiao Zhi treated Chu Xin differently in the past when she was around, but now that she is gone, he can still find a substitute.
Okay, it’s really okay!
"Tomorrow there will be another First Lady. From now on, we are all sisters and we need to take more care of her."
Chu Yi smiled sarcastically as she spoke, what kind of sisters, they were once enemies who could be enemies of even their biological sisters, so what do these count for?
"Mrs. Chu Xin?"
The first person to speak was Qingyun. She was afraid that she heard it wrong. Why did this title seem so familiar?
"It is indeed Mrs. Chuxin. Although she is just a slave in the palace, His Highness said that she is well-behaved and sensible and would be good to stay around and serve, so he gave her a title. From now on, we will all be sisters, so don't look down on her. If she is a slave, I will make things difficult for her.”
.
Chu Yi said lightly, Qingyun was the person she sent to Xiao Zhi just to distract Chu Xin's favor. Now it seems that she was so ridiculous at that time.
Xiao Zhi obviously doesn't care no matter what he does. It's because he doesn't care that he can accept Qingyun with peace of mind, including his current original intention.
Because he doesn't care at all whether he will be sad or not, and sometimes he even wonders if he did it on purpose.
"A slave actually flew up a branch and became a phoenix. No wonder His Highness has not returned home for so long. It turns out there is a beauty in the palace!"
Shen Minghui said harshly and sarcastically that it would be pointless for women like them to fight until His Highness comes back. They didn't expect that a slave would take advantage of her.
"What's the use of saying all this now? Is it possible that you can still make His Highness dislike her? What about the slaves? Aren't they all already the people who care about His Highness?"
Chu Yi said boringly, now that it's time like this, she still can only talk and be jealous, life like this is really boring!
The words have reached this point, and the other people have nothing to refute. They all eagerly gave that slave a name, so they must be very fond of her.
It's just that Shen Minghui is so dissatisfied. His Highness was kind to her when she was sent to the palace, but now he has become so cold.
If I had known earlier, I would have been less angry.
